An Integrated Control Strategy Towards Improvement of Vehicle Ride and Handling via Active Suspension 2011-01-2161

An integrated control strategy for vehicle active suspension system which combines linear quadratic optimum control law with fuzzy control algorithm is designed to improve both ride and handling. The performance of this control strategy is then examined and assessed in an open-loop J-turn driving scenario on a random-rough road by means of computer simulation. Comparisons to a passive suspension system in terms of vehicle sprung mass vertical acceleration, body roll angle and yaw rate is conducted. Simulation results indicate that the integrated control strategy proposed in this paper could effectively enhance vehicle ride comfort meanwhile benefit handling quality and driving safety.
